(Y2) Game Summaries Week 6

The Virginia Tech Hokies got back in the win column with a total dismantling of the Rice Owls 52-3. The Hokies out gained the Owls by a 531-145 margin and had 16 more 1st downs. The rushing attack was there all day as VT rolled up 331 split mostly between 4 guys: Ryan Williams (98yds), Ju Ju Clayton (111yds), Darren Evans (52yds), Logan Thomas (67yds). Ju Ju was also efficient through the air going 10-15 for 179 yards and 2 TD's.
Va Tech improves to 3-2 with a bye next week before facing Clemson in week 8.

Since Ok St. lost of QB Brandon Weeden for the season last week against Texas Tech, the bad luck continues. The Pokes failed to convert on a lot of possessions an couldn't keep up with the no-huddle offense of TAMU. Ok St. backup QB J. Deaton had a good game 2 TD's passing for 378yds, but couldn't establish a rhythm in the first half. The Aggies RB Christine Micheal would destroy the cowboys defense all game with big break away runs. TAMU QB Tannehill would also account for 4 of the Aggies Touchdowns.

In a game where the running game was completely shut down ( see Giovani Benard, 20 carries for 28 yards and 2 fumbles), sophomore QB Bryn Renner showed why he is considered one of the top passers in the nation. Renner completed 35 of 53 passes for 529 yards and 2TD's. Four UNC WR's eclipsed 95 yards catching while the Tar Heels defense kept Clemson in check for most of the day.

UNC would take a comfortable 14-3 lead at halftime, but the 3rd quarter would be all Clemson, as they narrowed the deficit to 16-21 on a TD run as well as an 81-yard pick-six. Clemson would go up 24-21 midway through the fourth as the stunned UNC faithfuls looked on. Despite having a rough day on the ground and seeing no daylight on most of his rushes, Giovani Bernard was able to scamper in on a 1 yard rush to put UNC up 28-24. The defense would hold serve and effectively seal the game for UNC.
